Eligibility: It is essential that you meet all of the following criteria:

Attending a UK state school or home-schooled (individuals who do not fit this criterion but who have extenuating circumstances may still apply)

Our events are aimed to help support students who come from backgrounds that are historically under-represented at Oxford. As such we will also be using the following criteria to assess applications:

Your post-code (if you are from an area of low progression to university or from an area of high deprivation)
If you are in receipt of Free School Meals
If you will be the first your family to attend university
You are care-experienced or are a young carer.

Applications for 2025 will open in late Spring. Please note that applications are highly competitive.
